ConflictThe conflict in Odysseus’ Revenge is that

he wants to get rid of all the suitors trying to court his wife, but the only way to get rid of them, is to kill them, which is something that Odysseus does not want to have to do, but ends up doing in the end.

Internal conflict is Odysseus does not want to commit murder, but that is his only choice.

External conflict is these suitors are all trying to court his wife.

THEME The theme was if one man is going to steal another mans stuff, that man will kill you.

This theme is like the old saying an eye for an eye ( Hammurabi’s Code), except taken a little too extreme(Death for robbery).

Page 11: Odysseus Revenge

Lessons Learned…Never assume anything. The suitors

assumed Odysseus was dead. That did not turn out very well for them.

Always keep trying. Odysseus never gave up, and eventually made it all the way back home.

Be brave. Odysseus ended up killing the suitors, even though he didn’t want to. He stood up to the suitors. That took bravery.
